Soccer Saturday, Park Sunday

Caroline had another soccer game on Saturday. We only have two more games left. They finally won their first game (they have tied one and lost two). 
 Caroline dribbled the ball some this game. I think she enjoyed the game.
 After the soccer game we picked up Caroline's friend Madelyn (to spend the night) then headed off to a birthday party. Sunday after church there was a celebration at one of the local parks. There was free BBQ, music, bounce houses, dunking booth, and face painting! The girls all had their faces painted like a butterfly.

Elizabeth was in the line for probably an hour waiting for her turn. (she may have let some people cut in front of her). Eli stood in line for about 5 min and ran off to play on the playground or the bounce house. He was too busy to be standing in line! I wish I had taken a picture of my friends little girl, but she and her mom were tired of standing in line so Greg took a paint brush and painted a rainbow and part of a butterfly on the little girls face... everyone told the little girl she looked great then after she ran off asked Greg what he had painted:)

Last Weekend

Well I forgot the good camera and only had my phone camera so the pics are not great... I also did not have a chance to take any pics of Caroline playing soccer last weekend. So I have a couple of Eli playing baseball. They had four games last week! 1 on Thursday night, 1 Friday night and 2 on Saturday. This week will be nice because of all the rain we wont have to play this weekend!!!

 During Caroline's soccer game Lizzy had a birthday party to attend. It was a very girly spa party complete with boa's, makeup, mani and pedi!!!
I will do better this weekend getting some pics taken to post next week!

Game Day

First game... soccer. Caroline decided she wanted to play soccer this year and had her first game on Saturday. So far she is enjoying playing.
 She is #18 on the silver team.
Next up:  Baseball Ready!
 He is on his way to second base... the cutest little runner out there!
He made it safely to second base! Although there was one point we were not sure if he would make it, he kinda stopped in between 1st and 2nd base then started running again. He likes to keep mom and dad on our toes!
